The Offer
- Join or Register for IHG Business Rewards and receive 1,000 IHG Rewards Club Points.
- It’s a little bit confusing but this is what you want to do:
The Fine Print
- Points will post within 30 days of registration
Our Verdict
Nice quick promotion and an easy 1,000 points. Being a business rewards member doesn’t seem that useful as you just get 3x points per $1 spent on qualified stays, meeting spaces + food & beverage but I’ll happily take the points for three clicks. I’l also be adding this to our list of ways to get free loyalty points. You might also be able to get 1,000 free IHG points on your birthday.
Hat tip to Live From A Lounge
I got this on 11/03/2017. “IHGRC Bonus Points – Corporate – 1,000 pts” I haven’t stayed for several months so I’m thinking this is the points.
doc, you should prob remind all the n00bs here how IHG follows the USB playbook and bans your crap if you abuse it with gameboy cheat codes and doing shit ur not supposed to. how “abuse” is defined is totally up to IHG. they dont play games. FYI.
I keep getting an error: “We encountered a system problem while processing your request. Please try again or contact the IHG Rewards Club Customer Care Centre for assistance.”
And it asks for a promotion code
Account shows “IHG Business Rewards Activation 0pts” from 08/25/17.

It’s targeted. Need a promo code and then says your membership isn’t eligible. Useless
The code you entered is invalid for your membership. Please check the qualification requirements for your country, region or programme. For further assistance please visit the IHG® Rewards Club Customer Care Centre page.
It is asking for a promo code…
Just did it. Asks for a promo code. Do you have that?
I registered for myself and my wife on August 24. It shows zero points for the registration on that date, and still no thousand points for either of us. Well past 30 days now.
In the same boat. IHG account activity shows 0 points after two months since registration.
Hi TomT,
I registered on the 24th as well and points posted on October 9th.
And still no points sigh
Still haven’t received any points. Lol
